The Village Game (Aurorasauras & Artie Bear, Book 20)

Aurorasauras & Artie Bear, Book 20 by Paul Rawly

That summer, Reverend Hannah, Trevor and their son Kit move into the old church in Puddlebrix. Kit watches from the window as the village children play with a bright ball. Aurorasauras and Artie Bear knock on the door to say hello.

Kit is non-verbal and communicates in his own ways. Would he like to watch, have a turn or do something else? Kit chooses to watch first. Artie and Aurorasauras show him how to roll the ball towards the little wooden gate, and nobody rushes. When Kit is ready, he touches a picture card, gives the ball a push and smiles a little smile. He can take a turn, pass or have a break whenever he wants.

A gentle, inclusive story about welcoming new friends, patience and letting everyone join in their own way.

The story is followed by 11 activity pages with story questions, feelings prompts and drawing spaces to share together. For children aged 3 to 7.
